Just a tip of the cap to the Bradley Bearettes and their strong showing so far this season. Seems like ole Jack has his best team at Bradley so far. Their 11-4 record shows losses to some of the very best in the state.

 

1) Riverdale (12-4)

2) Wilson Central (13-1)

3) Oak Ridge (13-3) a loss that they avenged just this week

4) Sevier County (13-0)

 

Look for all of these teams to be ranked when the first AP polls come out next week.

 

Good luck at Hoover on Saturday night.

baconbreath,

 

you are correct, a tip of the cap to the young ladies from Cleveland. I noticed you comment about avenging the loss to Oak Ridge. Seemed it was more of revenge than anything after the comments Coach Harlow made after the game. I have been watching girls HS ball for more years than I can to mention and I have never seen anything like it. It seemed way out of character for Coach Harlow. Don't know if you were there, but if you were, I think you know what I am referring to. Oak Ridge has nothing but respect for the Bradley team and Jack and really do not understand what prompted his actions. Oh well, I guess a person hangs around long enough and they will see it all. Good luck to Bradley Central the rest of the season.

Hey Papati,

Yeah, I was there for the game and sat behind the Bradley bench. I saw Jack gesturing to the crowd after the game and saying something but I couldn't hear what it was.

 

Anyway, it was a tremendous win for the Bearettes in a tough tournament. Oak Ridge has a great tradition and program under Jill and they are a nemesis to the Bearettes. Jack's record against the Lady Cats is now 2-8 at Bradley Central after this win breaking a five game losing streak.

 

Congrats to two of the best programs in the state for one of the best girls games I've seen in a long time. It was a thriller and these two will play again on 02/19 to close out the regular season at Oak Ridge.

I don't think this year's team is his best. We had a great team back in 2001. District and Region champs! Three of those senior girls are still playing college ball. It's a two dog race in Region 3....Cleveland and Bradley. I'll personally make sure Papa Harlow is ready for the Lady Raiders. He's having a great season! Two second place finishes in tournaments. Good year so far! Great year if they can get the district and region championship. Excellent Season if he can get that win in sub-state and earn that trip to Murfeesboro! Only time will tell!

I really don't feel that Bradley will have alot of trouble with Cleveland, unless they have an off night.

 

I agree that it was a great game. None the less, if he is 2-8 or 8-2, that is no reason to act the way he did. Jack is better than that.

 

I hope that have a great season and take it all in the boro.

The Bearettes played great in the Greenville Tournament! They are getting better all the time. Beating Oak Ridge was real exciting for the girls because this is the first time in 3 years we have beat them. Harlow was beside himself but he wasnt' downing Oak Ridge at all. He knows how good a team they are. It was just an exciting win. I thot the girls played well with Sevier County. Sevier was shooting better and that's why they won. Tina & Mel were hot and did an awesome job...Anyone who has been following the Bearettes know that they are improving and it interesting to see where they will be in March. They have the potential to be in State and Harlow knows that. Go Bearettes!!

Bearettefan,

 

What I heard from Coach Harlow was uncalled for and it was downing Oak Ridge and Coach Harlow was out of control. Maybe you didn't hear what I heard. Anyway, it was a great game and a well deserved win for Bradley. No doubt that they have the potential to be in the Boro, but the Greeneville tournament was not the State tournament. When you win it all, that is the time to be excited. It is a long hard road and the only objective at this point should be to try and improve each and every night out. Heres hoping that Jack can get his emotions under control because this team will need him down the stretch.

      school closing in Shelby county

      By TheTruthHurts22 · Posted

      Im more of a Basketball follower than football and like I said we play what we have, there is no going and recruiting or even talking kids into transferring…..and to rebut about Memphis teams in finals I’ve watched Memphis East and Penny Hardaway with the enrollment of a single A team play up and dominate any and all challengers for years! They aren’t the only ones either Mike Miller and son at Germantown put together that super team a couple years ago that ran through the rest of the state! Other teams from Memphis or Chatt or Nash or any large populated area pop up and are relevant out of nowhere every year because they get an influx of talent be it from a new coach or AAU affiliations it happens in football also just like any other sport! I hope these two schools that close join together and get to play the team you support, then you may see it differently! I find it funny some of you think recruiting and resources don’t matter . The county schools get very little funding also but you don’t want to get me started on that part!

      Simmons OUT at GH

      By WaReAgLe3 · Posted

      In a total classless move, Coach Simmons once again shows his true colors. Waits till the day after school is out to let everyone know he is leaving. Fails up to a community college job after a lackluster 2 year span at GH. And do not tell me about the state run that saved a sub .500 season and plenty of whippings by Cookeville and Lebanon.  Looks like the girls job at GH is cursed. Terrible MS program/coaches feeding what is turning out to be a joke of a HS team.
